Description:

Integrated national financing frameworks (INFFs) were first introduced in the Addis Ababa Action Agenda to support increased alignment of financing from all sources with national sustainable development objectives. INFFs focus on strengthening planning and overcoming barriers to finance sustainable development, through a financing strategey to increase investment, manage risks and achieve development priorities. The technical guidance aims to support countries to integrate gender equality objectives and gender analysis into the design and implementation of INFFs. It presents guiding questions, case examples, data sources and proposed recommendations for major stakeholders to strengthen gender integration at each stage of the process. The guidance is envisaged as a living document and will be updated to incorporate new information and country experiences.
